Paroles et traduction Fokofpolisiekar - Selfmedikasie

Selfmedikasie

Daar is vrees in my pa se oë
Sy gewete brand soos tyres
′N rooksein na daarbo
Ons is almal in dieselfde boot
Vasgeketting aan die aarde
En ons fok net voort
Dinge verander
Dinge verander
Dinge verander nie
Waar bly jy?
Jy bly stil
Wat sê jy?
Sukkel om jou te hoor
Bo die kakofonie
Deur die ligbesoedeling
Sukkel ek om jou te sien
Selfs met die
Selfmedikasie
Daar is hoop
In my ma se hart
Haar gebede soos 'n swerm
′N noodkreet na daarbo
Almal in dieselfde boot
Vasgeketting aanmekaar
En ons fok net voort
Mense verander
Mense verander
Maar Jesus nooit
Jissis, party dae voel'it vir my asof ek dit nie gaan maak nie
En dan kan ek nie verstaan hoekom jy vir my kwaad raak nie
Hoekom ek nie kan onthou om die bed weer op te maak nie
Hoekom ek bang is iemand breek in terwyl ek nie daar is nie
Waar bly jy?
In Bellville
Waar's dit?
Dis daar langs die N1 naby Durbanville

Self-medication

There is fear in my father's eyes
His conscience burns like tires
A smoke signal to the heavens above
We are all in the same boat
Chained to the earth
And we just keep on reproducing
Things are changing
Things are changing
Things are not changing
Where do you live?
You stay silent
What are you saying?
Struggle to hear you
Above the cacophony
Through the light pollution
I struggle to see you
Even with the
Self-medication
There is hope
In my mother's heart
Her prayers like a swarm
A cry for help to the heavens above
All in the same boat
Chained together
And we just keep on reproducing
People change
People change
But Jesus never
Jeez, some days it feels like I'm not going to make it
And then I can't understand why you're mad at me
Why I can't remember to make the bed again
Why I'm afraid someone will break in while I'm away
Where do you live?
In Bellville
Where's that?
It's over there by the N1 near Durbanville
